Bassano del Grappa, Italy – March 19, 2026
Today, March 19th, is Father's Day in Italy (Festa del Papà ) — and what better occasion to celebrate than by honoring the father of the Amiga himself, Jay Miner? The visionary engineer and chip designer who gave life to the Amiga back in 1985 deserves to be remembered not just with words, but with something tangible for the community he helped create.
For this reason, ACube Systems has chosen today to release version 1.2 of the SiI3132 SATA2 driver for AmigaOS 4.1 — a small tribute to Jay Miner's enduring legacy.
What's new in version 1.2:
Performance & Code Efficiency — General code improvements for better overall performance and optimization.
SCSI Command Handling — Error response management for SCSI commands has been significantly improved, resulting in greater robustness during operation.
Burning Process — The handling of disc burning phases has been refined for improved reliability when working with CD/DVD drives.
As with the very first release back in October 2025 — unveiled as a special gift during the Amiga40 Germany event in Mönchengladbach to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Amiga — this update is completely free of charge. It has always been our intention to give back to this incredible community, and that spirit remains unchanged.
The driver continues to support HDDs, SSDs, and optical drives via SATA2 on PCIe cards based on the Silicon Image SiI3132 controller, delivering high performance and stability on AmigaOS 4.1.
You can download the driver from the “Latest files” section on our homepage or directly clicking on this link:

Happy Father's Day — and thank you, Jay. 🙏 |
